Impact of mobile cranes on short span bridges
… a study of the impact of mobile crane on short span bridges. Short span bridges span between 5 and 40m are very common in South Africa. A finite element model representing the interaction of a mobile crane with a bridge has been developed using Adina finite element software. Bridges have …

Structural Robustness of Long-span Cable-Supported Bridges
… part of the current infrastructure system, long-span bridges are directly exposed to adverse environments, such as floods, scours, hurricanes, etc., and dynamic loads such as earthquakes and vehicular impacts. Additionally, recent long-span cable-supported collapse examples show that many bridges …

New Truck Loading Model For Rural Bridges In Saskatchewan
… in Saskatchewan, there are approximately 1700 bridges, many of which were constructed in the 1950s to 1960s and are therefore nearing the end of their expected service life. Evaluations for those bridges are therefore needed to make cost-effective decisions on rehabilitation or replacement to …

Analysis and comparison of the South African and Eurocode live load models for railway bridges
… and Eurocode (EC) live load models for railway bridges. The study is specifically concerned with the critical load effects of shear and bending moment. The load models are simulated as moving loads over the full length of simply supported and continuous railway systems with speeds not exceeding …

Development of a Minimal Information Data - modelling approach for the monitoring of short and medium span bridges
… which can monitor the structural behaviour of short and medium span bridges. A significant number of bridges in many countries are approaching or have exceeded their design life. For this reason, structural health monitoring (SHM) has been widely studied in the last two decades. However, the …

Precast Full-Depth Deck Panels Supported on Inverted Bulb-Tee Bridge Girders
… bridge deck systems for many of its county bridges because they are economical and fast in construction. Current bridges are designed for a service life of 75 years. However, many double-tee girder bridges are deteriorating and some need total replacement after 40 years in service. …
